  • Aegis policy: Go Ready Pandemic Plus

    I have contacted GoReady by email, through their form, and by phone. Nobody has called me back or reached out to me. I am very dissatisfied with their service. Can you do anything about this. I need to file a claim in a timely manner.

    Response from Aegis

    We contacted her immediately after receiving this review. Our phone records did not show any calls coming in from the insured’s number, but she may have contacted us from a different one than listed in her policy. Our email records only show one contact which was from the day prior to this review coming in. During high volume service/claim periods, email responses sometimes take more than 24 hours.

    We initiated claims for her to recoup her $190 in expenses. The insured was under the impression that she would be eligible for additional (good faith) payments due to hardships experienced while traveling.

    The company engages in deceiving practices to avoid paying at any cost. The claim systems is barely working and it is very hard to follow up. I will not use or recommend this company ever again.

    Response from Aegis

    We have not received any calls or emails from the insured relative to this policy. They have purchased multiple policies from us, so we believe they're referencing the wrong one. On their last policy, they filed a claim which was opened in February & paid out for the full amount claimed the following month.

    Ease of purchase was never an issue. There is so much detail that sometimes it becomes oblique what you’re looking at and the small print can be overwhelming, and you may find yourself lost in details buying things you don’t need or buying things that are inappropriate for what you need. This is the first time in my many years of traveling that I needed to contact my trip insurance as I became seriously ill on this trip. I found speaking truth customer service reps frustrating because I couldn’t get the answers I was looking for. when you’re in the middle of a crisis, and you’re looking for a calm voice of reason, it is frustrating when the person on the other end of the line, whose service you have paid to secure, can’t give you any actual information. Having never placed an insurance claim I wasn’t sure how it would need to be done. Nobody tells you that. Nobody says go to the hospital and deal with it later. Nobody says call us and make sure you’re covered or call us first to get a dr’s approval or make sure you’re going to a covered facility or anything like that. I w want sure to call them ahead of my hospitalization or after; I didn’t know what paperwork I would require.
    I still don’t.
    I became ill with a serious situation, which evolved to a life-threatening situation, and wound up needing an emergency procedure and spent more time at the hospital then I was supposed to spend on my original trip, which was itself delayed by a day, thanks to airline error. I had a flight delay, I had a missed connection, I wound up sleeping alone in a strange airport in a strange city I never intended visiting in the first place)- as a clearly disabled individual (not ideal) and had a completely nightmarish trip on the way here.

    Winding up in hospital after all that is insult to actual injury .

    I don’t know how to file a claim for any of those things, and my interactions with staff to this point have made that no clearer to me. I believe I’m eligible for a trip interruption claim;
    interrupted it certainly was.

    It is not with undiluted pleasure I look forward to making that claim; but I will attempt to do so once I am home, stable, & in good health.

    I made my claim and uploaded all of my appropriate documents to broadspire claimant upload. It took more than 5 weeks for this to be reviewed for the first time, and even after calling numerous times where they would not even answer the calls, I was finally put into contact with my policy reviser. They told me to drip load one more document which I have done. It has been 3+ weeks since I have uploaded the requested document and they still have not reviewed it or answered my calls. As of now I am still making the claim.

    Aegis policy: Go Ready Choice

    I bought a policy to insure a down payment on my trip and then later insured the whole trip. Making the transition was confusing- some elements were available for coverage for the down payment but not the full trip. Also the different names of the insurance companies added a layer of confusion (Square mouth, tin leg and April)

    We had to cancel our February trip. We submitted our claim at the end of January due to covid. We were told that our claim would be addressed in 30 days. After 30 days passed I attempted to call customer service with no answer or explanation for a wait time. Then I called the emergency service number with the same results. Now it’s 12 days into March with no contact from GoReady.
    We are very displeased with this service and their timeliness.
